Can't see the airport wanting DY for New York.

The main reason airport didn't work with Ryanair before now was it didn't want routes to secondary airports miles away from city centres
Such policies are long outdated and any airport authority that retains such blind faith in legacy Hub and Spoke deserves to falter.

Just look at Manchester around 2006 up to the global crash and the BA pull out traffic fell from over 21 million right down to 17 million.

Sustained growth has come from embracing this sector.

You need RYR/EZY and LS -they increase footfall immensely, oh and bring in customers that actually spend money in the retail and catering establishments

(Your legacy connector with a business ticket and lounge access doesn't !)
